  • A built in smart spell-checking system that uses the Google Search helps students to easily identify spelling and simple grammar errors as they type.

      This would be beneficial for English as a Second Language (ESL) students. One of the strategies we learned for aiding ESL students in their writing is the use of technology that will correct mistakes as they are made instead of after the fact, as is often the case in hand-written assignments.
  • Provide students with a starting point for digital writing and take advantage of a virtual copy machine by creating templates.

      I think that teachers probably underestimate the value of templates. For example, think of research papers that use APA or MLA style. Templates would be a great resource to show students what the document needs to look like, as well as give them clues on how to format the document on their own. (Plus, it saves time!)
